3 Description

The smoothed sample cross spectrum is a complex valued function of frequency ω, fxyω=cfω+iqfω, defined by its real part or co-spectrum
cfω=12π k=-M+1 M-1wkCxyk+Scosωk  
and imaginary part or quadrature spectrum
qfω=12π k=-M+ 1 M- 1wkCxyk+Ssinω k  
where wk=w-k, for k=0,1,,M-1, is the smoothing lag window as defined in the description of g13caf. The alignment shift S is recommended to be chosen as the lag k at which the cross-covariances cxyk peak, so as to minimize bias.
The results are calculated for frequency values
ωj=2πjL,  j=0,1,,L/2,  
where denotes the integer part.
The cross-covariances cxyk may be supplied by you, or constructed from supplied series x1,x2,,xn; y1,y2,,yn as
cxyk=t=1 n-kxtyt+kn,  k0  
cxyk=t= 1-knxtyt+kn=cyx-k,   k< 0  
this convolution being carried out using the finite Fourier transform.
The supplied series may be mean and trend corrected and tapered before calculation of the cross-covariances, in exactly the manner described in g13caf for univariate spectrum estimation. The results are corrected for any bias due to tapering.
The bandwidth associated with the estimates is not returned. It will normally already have been calculated in previous calls of g13caf for estimating the univariate spectra of yt and xt.

3: pxy Real (Kind=nag_wp) Input
On entry: if cross-covariances are to be calculated by the routine (ic=0), pxy must specify the proportion of the data (totalled over both ends) to be initially tapered by the split cosine bell taper. A value of 0.0 implies no tapering.

Constraint: 1iw4.
5: mw Integer Input
On entry: M, the ‘cut-off’ point of the lag window, relative to any alignment shift that has been applied. Windowed cross-covariances at lags -mw+ish or less, and at lags mw+ish or greater are zero.
Constraints:
  • mw1;
  • mw+ishnxy.
6: ish Integer Input
On entry: S, the alignment shift between the x and y series. If x leads y, the shift is positive.
Constraint: -mw<ish<mw.
7: ic Integer Input

ic=0
Cross-covariances are to be calculated.
ic0
Cross-covariances are to be supplied.

On entry: the number of cross-covariances to be calculated in the routine or supplied in the call to the routine.
Constraint: mw+ishncnxy.
9: cxync Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input/Output
On entry: if ic0, cxy must contain the nc cross-covariances between values in the y series and earlier values in time in the x series, for lags from 0 to nc-1.
If ic=0, cxy need not be set.
On exit: if ic=0, cxy will contain the nc calculated cross-covariances.
If ic0, the contents of cxy will be unchanged.
10: cyxnc Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input/Output
On entry: if ic0, cyx must contain the nc cross-covariances between values in the y series and later values in time in the x series, for lags from 0 to nc-1.
If ic=0, cyx need not be set.
On exit: if ic=0, cyx will contain the nc calculated cross-covariances.
If ic0, the contents of cyx will be unchanged.
11: kc Integer Input
On entry: if ic=0, kc must specify the order of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) used to calculate the cross-covariances.
If ic0, that is if covariances are supplied, kc is not used.
Constraint: kcnxy+nc.
12: l Integer Input
On entry: L, the frequency division of the spectral estimates as 2πL . Therefore it is also the order of the FFT used to construct the sample spectrum from the cross-covariances.
Constraint: l2×mw-1.
13: nxyg Integer Input
On entry: the dimension of the arrays xg and yg as declared in the (sub)program from which g13ccf is called.
Constraints:
  • if ic=0, nxygmaxkc,l;
  • otherwise nxygl.
14: xgnxyg Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input/Output
On entry: if the cross-covariances are to be calculated, then xg must contain the nxy data points of the x series. If covariances are supplied, xg need not be set.
On exit: contains the real parts of the ng complex spectral estimates in elements xg1 to xgng, and xgng+1 to xgnxyg contain 0.0. The y series leads the x series.
15: ygnxyg Real (Kind=nag_wp) array Input/Output
On entry: if cross-covariances are to be calculated, yg must contain the nxy data points of the y series. If covariances are supplied, yg need not be set.
On exit: contains the imaginary parts of the ng complex spectral estimates in elements yg1 to ygng, and ygng+1 to ygnxyg contain 0.0. The y series leads the x series.
16: ng Integer Output
On exit: the number, l/2+1, of complex spectral estimates, whose separate parts are held in xg and yg.
17: ifail Integer Input/Output
On entry: ifail must be set to 0, -1 or 1 to set behaviour on detection of an error; these values have no effect when no error is detected.
A value of 0 causes the printing of an error message and program execution will be halted; otherwise program execution continues. A value of -1 means that an error message is printed while a value of 1 means that it is not.
If halting is not appropriate, the value -1 or 1 is recommended. If message printing is undesirable, then the value 1 is recommended. Otherwise, the value 0 is recommended. When the value -1 or 1 is used it is essential to test the value of ifail on exit.
On exit: ifail=0 unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

7 Accuracy

The FFT is a numerically stable process, and any errors introduced during the computation will normally be insignificant compared with uncertainty in the data.

8 Parallelism and Performance

g13ccf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
g13ccf makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

9 Further Comments

g13ccf carries out two FFTs of length kc to calculate the sample cross-covariances and one FFT of length L to calculate the sample spectrum. The timing of g13ccf is therefore dependent on the choice of these values. The time taken for an FFT of length n is approximately proportional to nlogn (but see Section 9 in c06paf for further details).

10 Example

This example reads two time series of length 296. It then selects mean correction, a 10% tapering proportion, the Parzen smoothing window and a cut-off point of 35 for the lag window. The alignment shift is set to 3 and 50 cross-covariances are chosen to be calculated. The program then calls g13ccf to calculate the cross spectrum and then prints the cross-covariances and cross spectrum.
